Robust sensor design High quality sensor components
Rugged draw-wire mechanics for encoder mounting The wireSENSOR mechanics of the Z60, P96, P115 and P200 series are designed for easy mounting of an incremental or absolute encoder. The selection of the interface, resolution and type of connection can therefore be individually configured. Optimum matching to the signal conditioning system is ensured. High precision components and a rugged housing offer high operational reliability and a long life time even under harsh industrial conditions.

customer-specific encoder
A complete measurement unit always consists of the basic draw-wire mechanism and the adapter for the customer-specific encoder. The adapter contains all the necessary mounting accessories for fitting the encoder and is included in delivery of the P96, P115 and P200 series.

Installation information: Wire attachment: The free return of the measurement wire is not permissible and it is essential that this is avoided during installation.
Wire exit angle: When mounting a draw-wire displacement sensor, a straight wire exit (±3° tolerance) must be taken into account. If this tolerance is exceeded, increased material wear on the wire and at the wire aperture must be expected.
